I've been offered some engine tinware but I don't know if it's correct.
Can someone post a picture of the tin so that I can gauge the correct shape/style. It's for a 1.7. Thanks |

Here's a pic of my old tin (and valve covers and runners) before going to powder coating. It's generally laid out where it would be on the engine (rear on the left of pic, front on the right). I believe the engine tin is the same, or basically the same, for all engines (1.7, 1.8, 2.0). Someone correct me if I'm wrong on that...

the spark plug holes are in a different location for a 2.0. 1.7 and 1.8 are the same I believe.

Thanks for the picture I think they tried to sell me tin for a bus as it's more curved than angular.
